It literally took 2 weeks for those updates on franchise mode. Did you send the franchise people home for the summer and hire some intern to do this kind of work in their place?

Gameplay Balance Change – Pitch Accuracy Tuning
We’ve heard the frustrations regarding pitching and perfect inputs not feeling as rewarding as we’d like, so we’ve made the following adjustments:
*Reduced frequency of pitches landing directly on the edge of the Perfect Accuracy Region (PAR). This benefits all pitching interfaces.
*Cleaned up some of the known instances where pitches could land outside of the Perfect Accuracy Region (PAR).
*Artwork tuning where the Perfect Accuracy Region (PAR) was not displaying at the true size on occasion.
*Removed the Perfect Accuracy Region (PAR) display post-pitch while slidestepping, as there is an accuracy penalty that is not accounted for within the initial PAR.It’s important to note that the core benefit of using Pinpoint Pitching above other interfaces is that it generates the smallest PAR, not necessarily that it is the most accurate within that PAR. However, these changes will help improve pitching accuracy across the board for all pitching interfaces, and we anticipate these changes will be most prevalent within Pinpoint Pitching.
We want pitching to feel more rewarding, and these changes will lead to an improved experience with all pitching interfaces.
Thank you for the clips, examples, and communication. We will continue monitoring the status through streams, telemetry, and playtesting as this Game Update goes live.
Live Content Balance Change – Lowered Player Requirements for Live Series Captains
Live Series Captains serve an important role in the Diamond Dynasty landscape, providing incentive for completing collections, enabling easily accessible theme teams, and adding utility to Live Series cards.
We’ve found these captains aren’t being used as frequently as we’d like, even in theme teams, so we’ve lowered the squad building requirements for each tier of every Live Series Captain by one.
For example, previous Captains would need 5 players for their Tier 1 Boost; now they only need 4. We hope this will increase the utility of these Captains and make Live Series cards more viable in Ranked play.
We will continue to monitor and balance captain cards in a similar fashion throughout the year.

Sds will never put the effort or time into franchise like they do with DD... think about it as a company point of view.. its how they make all the money with stubs.. not franchise.. its to bad for us

Which is why I asked did they send the franchise people home for the summer. They clearly don’t have anyone working on franchise since it doesn’t matter.
